Just completed another card in my quest to send a box off to SendASmile4Kids. Something a little different this time...I don't often use these 3 particular colors in my card making, but I was following the WCMD challenge at Winnie & Walters. Thought it turned out pretty cool looking & my husband seemed to really like it! The stamp is from a Stampendous set called Daisy Thanks. I stamped it on some watercolor paper with black Versafine Pigment Ink & while it was still wet, heat embossed it with clear embossing powder. I used the yellow Zig Clean Color Brush to color in the flower centers. Then I diecut a yellow frame for it with a Spellbinder's Circle Die, stamped the bee & sentiment with the same Versafine ink, and glued it down to a black card base. Thanks for stopping by!

What a wonderfully happy card! Even though you don't use these colors often, you looked like a pro to me! I love how the yellow gives it such a fun pop of color, but the black keeps it grounded and classy-looking. This card couldn't help but make me smile and I applaud your worthy goal of creating a box for SendASmile4Kids. You did a wonderful job on this one and I'm so glad you shared your talents with us for this week's Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge!

Those daisies just pop off the page - especially embossed with black. I love the bright sunny feel of your card and know it will brighten the day of the recipient. So glad you shared this fabulous card with us at AtCAS this weekjaydee
